Covid-19 India vs Makeup
A volunteer-run archive of India's COVID-19 statistics — state- and district-level confirmed/recovered/deceased counts and vaccination totals — served as JSON (v4 endpoints) and CSV from data.covid19india.org. The original api.covid19india.org project and its per-request JSON routes were deprecated in August 2021 in favor of these v4/CSV endpoints; the data itself is a static historical snapshot, last modified October 2025 per the response headers, not a live daily feed. A live GET against data.covid19india.org returns no Access-Control-Allow-Origin header, resolving the stored 'unknown' cors to 'no'.
Makeup API is a free, keyless single-endpoint REST service serving a static catalogue of cosmetics products — lipsticks, foundations, eyeshadows, and more — searchable by brand, product type, category, tag, price, and rating, with per-product image and retailer links. Still live on Heroku with no auth, no published rate limit, and no formal SLA; it's a hobby open-data project rather than a maintained commercial API. A live GET against makeup-api.herokuapp.com/api/v1/products.json succeeds over both http and https with no key, and returns Access-Control-Allow-Origin: * — resolving the stored 'unknown' cors to 'yes' and the stored 'https: false' to 'true'.
